Apple's e-Reader device was being billed as the saviour of the magazine industry, but all this is being hindered by a new no-nipple policy.
Magazines planning to launch iPad editions will have to ease right up, or cut back entirely on nudity in their photography and fashion editorials to make into Apple's No Porn app store.
Those working on the
Dazed and Confused iPad edition have apparently nicknamed it the 'Iran edition', paralleling it to the censorship within the Muslim theocracy.
For example: this magazine cover.
It's Madonna. She
was showing her nipple, but now she is not. Why? Because Steve Jobs says "Nuh uh!" to boobies.
The Apple policy seems to be confusing art and fashion with soft porn, which is a shame.
Things like the
LOVE magazine launch edition, with a naked photo shoot of Beth Ditto - now not safe for iPad.
Almost
everything Terry Richardson has ever done - also not safe for iPad.
What do you think about all this modification?
